The wine region of Big Rivers
Irrigated zone of south-western New South Wales (Murray Darling, Perricoota, Riverina, Swan Hill, ~75% of state wine), hot dry continental climate irrigated by Murray, Darling and Murrumbidgee rivers. Shiraz is the signature red: sunny and generous with blackberry, candied plum, pepper, chocolate and a liquorice touch, enveloping tannins. Firm Cabernet Sauvignon complements. Ample Chardonnay and lively Semillon in whites (historic botrytised Semillon at Riverina).
The wine region of Nouvelle-Galles du Sud
Australia's 2nd wine state with diverse regions. Iconic Hunter Valley: a Sémillon unlike any other, straight, low-alcohol dry whites with vivid citrus when young, evolving over 10-20 years toward honey, toast and lanolin. Medium-bodied Hunter Shiraz, spicy and earthy (leather, red fruits). Also round Chardonnay and aromatic Verdelho.
The word of the wine: Phylloxera
Aphid that came from America and ravaged European vineyards at the end of the 19th century. It lives on the roots of the vine, from which it pumps the sap. The only vines capable of resisting it had to be imported from the United States, and then grafted onto their root system the wood of traditional French grape varieties. Today, grafted vines are always planted.
